Manage episode 321677749 series 2903211
Young voices. Big issues. Welcome to Youth Rising by NCS! The podcast for young people, made by young people. This week we’re exploring gender - what it means and the expectations society puts on it. From the perceived conceptions of gender, to how we understand it. In 2022, how do we move forward with accepting and expressing gender outside of existing binaries?
Youth Rising team member Haleem speaks to Jamie Raines and Shaaba Lotun, Youtubers, couple and childhood best friends about the stages of transition, the dysphoria that can surround it and family support.
Later, Ella speaks to life coach, model and activist, Harnaam Kaur, about body hair, society's pressure around gender and finding your own expression.
